Explain why hexadecimal is used by computer scientists

Mathematics

Hexadecimal<span> numerals are widely </span>used<span> by computer system designers and programmers. As each </span>hexadecimal<span> digit represents four binary digits (bits), it allows a more human-friendly representation of binary-coded values. One</span>hexadecimal<span> digit represents a nibble (4 bits), which is half of an octet or byte (8 bits).

           
  
            " </span>The main reason why we use hexadecimal numbers is because it is much easier to express binary number representations in hex than it is in any other base number system." - http://digiassn.blogspot.com/2006/02/why-do-we-use-hexadecimal.html

Gerardo says that a cube with edges that measure 10 centimeters has a volume that is twice as much as a cube with sides that mea
irga5000 [103]
He is wrong.
The 10 inch cube is bigger than the 5 inch cube by 5 cm in EACH DIRECTION.
So, the 10 inch cube should be twice as big in volume by a factor of 2*2*2
=8
Okay let's see.
5 cm cube volume = 5*5*5 = 125 cc
10 cm cube volume = 10 * 10 * 10 = 1,000 cc

1,000 / 125 = 8

If the areas of the given pairs of shapes are equal, find the value of x.​
den301095 [7]

Answer:

x = 8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a square and rectangle.we want to figure out x which is the width of the rectangle. we are also given a condition i.e

  • the area of the square equal to the area of the rectangle

therefore,

\displaystyle \rm A _{square } = A _{rect}

recall the formula of the area of square and rectangle so,

\displaystyle  {s}^{2} = lw

now assign variables

  • s \implies16cm
  • l \implies32cm
  • w \implies x

thus substitute:

\displaystyle 32cmx =  {16cm}^{2}

simplify square:

\displaystyle 32cmx = 256cm^2

divide both sides by 32:

\displaystyle  \boxed{x = 8cm}

and we're done!
